At the November hearing the Council honored the applicant's second request for a continuance to provide adequate time for the project engineer to gather information related to undergrounding of utilities and respond to Council concerns related to placing existing overhead utilities underground. Subsequent to the November 3 continuance the City Council Ad Hoc Committee (Councilmembers Harper and Rodgers) met with the applicant and the engineer for this project on November 10, 1999, to review information related to the infra - structure conditions, property line walls and the affordable housing condition. The Ad Hoc Committee evaluated the available information and arrived at a recommendation for each of the outstanding issues. The recommended conditions resulting from a meeting of the Ad Hoc Committee have been incorporated into the attached draft resolution. 0000014, Honorable City Council December 1, 1999 Page 2 DISCUSSION The Ad Hoc Committee at their meeting of November 10, 1999, after considerable discussion arrived at the following conclusions and made recommendations as noted: 1. Street Improvements: Committee Recommendation: The "knuckle" street improvements proposed for the intersection of Bard and Third Streets consistent with City street design standards are preferred, however, modifications may be considered if justified by physical conditions and alternative design criteria. Conclusion: Although the Ad Hoc Committee's preference is to adhere to the City standard, authorization was granted to staff to evaluate a design that would serve the desired goal of achieving safe and efficient traffic flow even if some modification of the design criteria was needed. Staff subsequently met with the applicant's engineer and discussed the alternative illustrated by EXHIBIT J attached to this report. This intersection design would retain the existing 90° turn in the curb and gutter line (with a 25' radius) on the outside (frontage of subject property) of the intersection improvements at Third Street and Bard Street but require a larger curb radius (corner is flattened out) on the inside (northwest corner - off project site) of the intersection improvements. The current inside corner radius is approximately 10 ft., however, the proposed radius at curb line would be 45 ft. The expansion of this radius which would flatten the curve will result in more room to maneuver though the intersection especially for school buses and similar sized vehicles, increasing the driving surface and improving the perception that vehicles moving past each other in opposite directions can do so safely, within the allotted 1/2 street travel -way. Modification of this intersection as outlined above is now viewed as adequate to deal with the traffic and safety issues previously identified and appears to be achievable. Private property acquisition is necessary for the larger radius curve and reconstruction of curb, gutter, sidewalk S: \Community Development \Everyone \City Council Agenda Reports \CC- 991201AsadurianWL.doc 0 00002 Honorable City Council December 1, 1999 Page 3 and a decorative block and wrought iron wall will be required. Additionally, relocation of a fire hydrant and removal of an electric utility pole which serves only the dwelling at this inside curve is required. The existing curb cut to Flory School at the boundary of the subject property will also be reconstructed by the developer consistent with City criteria. The Bard Street frontage of this project under this design modification should be posted for "No Parking" thus maintaining the maximum travel -way possible for vehicular movements. As requested by Council at the meeting of October 6, 1999, the Moorpark Unified School District was contacted concerning this project and comments were submitted supporting appropriate traffic control measures at Bard and Third Streets and noting concern for traffic control, dust and noise mitigation measures during project construction (see attached). The attached resolution includes conditions responsive to concerns of the Superintendent in his letter of November 10, 1999, (Attachment K). 2. Underground Utilities: Committee Recommendation: The Ad Hoc Committee concluded that the existing overhead utilities on Bard Street from the northwest corner of the subject property to the southwest corner of the subject property (at the pedestrian gate to Flory School) should be placed underground. Additionally, it was recommended that the pole across the street from subject property at the inside corner of Bard Street and Third Street (where street improvements are to be made) which provides a service drop to one single family dwelling, also be eliminated. Reference to Ad Hoc Committee recommendation No. 1 notes that the subject pole to be removed for undergrounding is the same pole to be removed for the street improvements. The Ad Hoc Committee did receive updated information from the applicant concerning estimates for undergrounding of utilities as found in EXHIBIT H attached. The revised cost estimate for undergrounding, not including the single pole across Bard Street from subject property, but including the placement of marbelite street light poles and underground S: \Community Development \Everyone \City Council Agenda Reports \CC- 991201AsadurianWL.doc 000003 Honorable City Council December 1, 1999 Page 4 wiring on Millard Street as concluded to be required by Council on October 6, 1999, is approximately $43,728. Removal of the pole across Bard Street from the development site and conversion of the service to the subject dwelling to underground is not likely to be a substantial added cost and would significantly improve the aesthetics of the intersection. 3. Project Walls: Committee Recommendation: Six (6) foot high solid masonry walls are required at all property lines to provide privacy to the yards of the individual lots as proposed. Materials used for walls that are visible from the public right -of- way must be decorative (slump block preferred), however, interior walls separating lots may be of alternative masonry material as determined by the Director of Community Development. The wall at the south boundary of the project along the pedestrian access to Flory School shall be masonry with a smooth surface texture and treated with an appropriate protective coating to resist graffiti. The existing masonry walls at the north property line may be stuccoed to blend with the proposed residences. Conclusion: The walls between side property lines, frequently called "return walls" and the wall that separates these units from Flory School are recommended by staff to be dark brown slump block with intregal color mortar joints, which will blend with the proposed architecture and reflect minimal light. The interior property line walls may be constructed of precision block (CMU) with integral color to blend with the slump block and integral color mortar joints. The wall parallel with the pedestrian access to Flory School from Millard Street should be the same integral color precision block and mortar joints but additionally treated along the pedestrian way with a graffiti resistant solution. 4. Affordable Housing: Committee Recommendation: The Ad Hoc Committee recommends that the one affordable housing unit required for this project (October 6, 1999, draft City Council Resolution S: \Community Development \Everyone \City Council Agenda Reports \CC- 991201AsadurianWL.doc Honorable City Council December 1, 1999 Page 5 recommended 1350 sq. ft.) based upon the formula for projects in a Redevelopment Project Area be provided on- site. If the unit is provided on -site as preferred by the Committee the level of affordability is recommended for a Low Income household. If the applicant prefers to provide the affordable unit off -site but within the Redevelopment Project Area the affordability criteria is recommended to be in the Very Low Income range for a household size of four or more. Provision of a unit either on -site or off - site must be done through a covenant for the life of the Redevelopment Area (32 years) which concludes in the year 2032. Should the applicant prefer to pay an in -lieu fee to comply with the affordable housing obligation, the sum of $51,000 is recommended. Conclusion: The Committee has noted its preference that the affordable housing unit required under Redevelopment Law be satisfied on -site, thus actually producing an affordable unit as part of the project development as compared to the payment of an in -lieu fee. As an incentive to develop the required affordable unit at this time on the project site the Committee recommended the Low Income designation which, for a family of four is available at an income of $47,800 a year (1999) as compared to a family of four with an income of $32,650 a year (1999) for the Very Low Income designation. Provision of an affordable housing unit outside of the Redevelopment Project Area must be done at a 2 to 1 ratio. PROJECT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS As previously noted, on October 6, 1999, the applicant has agreed to add architectural detail, to the proposed residences, however, one wall on the two story units should be improved beyond applicant's current commitment. The attached resolution incorporates a condition to include additional architectural detail on the two story structures where a blank wall (no windows) is currently proposed. It is suggested that bathroom windows with a sill height of five (5) feet or higher and window surrounds would significantly improve this elevation. S: \Community Development \Everyone \City Council Agenda Reports \CC- 991201AsadurianWL.doc 0 00 00 0 Honorable City Council December 1, 1999 Page 6 GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY The General Plan designation is Medium Density, which allows a maximum of four units per acre. The gross acreage of the parcel is approximately 1.2 acres allowing eight (8) units, which is consistent with the density currently allowed by the Land Use Element of the General Plan. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION Pursuant to California State law, an evaluation has been conducted to determine if the project will have a significant effect on the environment, and based upon an Initial Study and analysis on available information, it was found that there is substantial evidence that the proposed project will not have a significant effect on the environment, therefore a Negative Declaration is intended to be adopted in compliance with the State of California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. DRAFT RESOLUTION The draft resolution attached to this Agenda Report has been revised since the first City Council hearing on October 6, 1999, to reflect conditions appropriately worded to respond to Council comments and Ad Hoc Committee recommendations. Legislative format has been used to highlight these modifications as well as changes recommended to the Staff conditions by the Planning Commission. Additionally, the list of standard conditions provided by the Police Department has been substituted with one condition as follows: "The applicant shall comply with all appropriate Police Department requirements ". Staff has also lined through several conditions that do not pertain to this project. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Open the public hearing, accept public testimony and close the public hearing. 2. Review, consider and approve the Negative Declaration. 3. Adopt Resolution No. 99- approving Residential Planned Development Permit No. 99 -1 and Tentative Tract Map No. 5181.

BACKGROUND On August 9, 1999, the Planning Commission at a continued public hearing voted to recommend to the City Council approval of this proposed eight (8) lot single family subdivision subject to conditions. This item had been continued from the Commission's meeting of July 12, 1999, following the applicant's expression of concern over a variety of issues and many of the recommended conditions. Staff and the applicant were subsequently able to clarify several of the issues but concern remains on the part of the applicant relating to underground utilities, certain street improvements, provision of masonry walls to define lot lines, developer fees and provision of affordable housing. At the Planning Commission meeting of July 12, 1999, applicant raised numerous questions concerning site design and architectural issues relating to the proposed subdivision which were subsequently resolved and the language in the City Council Resolution has been adjusted to reflect that conclusion. Although the Commission addressed many issues the applicant continues to have concerns related to: 1. Requirement to underground existing overhead utilities on Millard Street and Bard Street. ATTACHMENT " fl FILE .. Honorable City Council September 29, 1999 Page 2 2. Requirement to dedicate land and complete street improvements at the intersection of Third Street and Bard Street which would result in a knuckle, the standard street design for this type of intersection. 3. Requirement for masonry walls to define the lot lines. 4. Requirement to pay development fees including park fees, air quality fees, traffic mitigation fees and drainage fees. 5. Requirement to provide one affordable housing unit in the Low income category (Low income is 80% of Median income or $47,800 per year for a family of four) . The subject property is within the Redevelopment Project Area. The Planning Commission after considerable discussion during the two public hearings voted to recommend approval to the City Council with conditions to require: 1. Underground utilities. 2. Recommended to the City Council to delete requirement for knuckle at Third Street and Bard Street. 3. Masonry walls to separate lots. 4. Deferred discussion on development fees to City Council. 5. One affordable housing unit in the Low income category. DISCUSSION The subject property is an infill site currently occupied by a single family dwelling and one metal out building. Access to the existing dwelling is taken at Bard Street. Located adjacent to Flory Elementary School and bounded on two sides by existing streets, this parcel is proposed for development with eight (8) single family detached dwellings, including four (4) single story units and four (4) two story units. The two story units are located on the narrow deep lots to the east of Flory School, while the single story units are located on that portion of the site between Bard Street and Millard Street. The proposed lots S: \Community Develo \ yo \F1Lo tus \CC- 99100GAsadurianR v e 2.doc _ _ Honorable City Council September 29, 1999 Page 3 range in size from 6038 square feet to 7500 square feet with street frontage ranging from 45 feet to 108 feet. The proposed single family dwellings involve two floor plans of 1636 square feet (single story) or 1869 square feet (two story). All of the residences are proposed with three bedrooms and a two -car garage. One story units will have two bathrooms while two story units will have 2 1/2 baths. The elevations, which display some design features found in Cottage and American architectural styles, have a reasonable amount of articulation on the front or street elevation and applicant has indicated that window surrounds will be placed on all windows that lack shutters. One building elevation (two -story model) lacks windows and although there is a door at ground level, otherwise lacks any detail. This elevation should be revised to include some appropriate architectural detail including non - opening opaque windows or glass block, a stucco beltcourse or second floor pop -out for a closet, etc. The roofs of all units will be concrete tile. Coloration of the units will vary according to the applicant, which is in contrast to the initial proposal that all units were to be a white stucco with green, brown or gray paint on the trim, shutters or wood siding. Ordinance criteria including parking, height of buildings and setbacks has been satisfied as more completely described in the July 12, 1999, Staff Report prepared for the Planning Commission. The side yard setbacks which are frequently a concern on narrow lots, range from five (5) feet to forty (40) feet and where the side yards for two story units (area east of Flory School) are noted as five (5) feet no windows have been included. The yard setbacks are consistent with R -1 provisions of the Zoning Ordinance. AFFORDABLE HOUSING This project as previously noted is located within the Redevelopment Project Area and as such is required to participate in efforts to provide affordable housing. Section 33413(b)(2)(A)(i) of the State Redevelopment Code requires residential projects in a Redevelopment Area to dedicate no less than 15% of the total number of units for affordable housing for persons of Low or Moderate income. Based upon these provisions of State Law, at least one of the eight units is required to be allocated for affordable housing. A condition of approval has 0 S: \Community Development \Everyone\WLoftus\CC- 991006AsadurianRev 2..doc Honorable City Council September 29, 1999 Page 4 been recommended in the attached resolution that one dwelling be allocated as an affordable unit available to a family in the Low income category (80% of Ventura County Median Income, which currently is $47,800 for a family of four) for a period of at least thirty (30) years. At the Planning Commission hearings the applicant commented to the Commission that because of the proposed price range of the units in this project an affordable requirement should not be established as a condition. The Planning Commission discussed this issue at length and concluded not to make a recommendation to the Council, although the Commission did comment that they were supportive of affordable housing. PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS Underground utilities and appropriate street improvements are required for all subdivisions. The conditions recommended by the City Engineer include the requirement to underground all Utility lines and reconstruct the Bard Street /Third Street intersection to include a knuckle where a 900 turn currently exists. The construction of a knuckle (flair of curb line which provides additional travel way for turning movements and parking) will require that some existing improvements be removed and additional right -of -way from subject property be provided for the flair or bulge in the outside portion of the curve where Bard Street and Third Street intersect. The applicant indicated to the Planning Commission that installing the knuckle at Bard and Third Streets was too expensive for the project, that land from Flory School would be required and that the fire ,_hydrant (west side of street at corner) and the large tree on the school property would be affected, further adding cost for relocation of the hydrant and removal of a significant tree. Following lengthy discussion on the issue, the Planning Commission voted to recommend to the City Council that the requirement for the knuckle be waived. This recommendation was based on the judgement of the Planning Commission, that the existing improvements were adequate to serve traffic and circulation in the area. Staff asked the applicant on several occasions for cost information and a design for the knuckle that would provide factual information for decision - makers, however, it has not been submitted. Staff would continue to stress the importance of a proper intersection S: \Community Development \Everyone\WLoftus\CC- 99100 GAsadurianRev 2,.doc Honorable City Council September 29, 1999 Page S design for the right turn at the intersection of Third Street and Bard Street and would suggest that a modified knuckle design that avoids the tree at Flory School and allows the fire hydrant to stay in place would be preferred to maintaining the existing condition. A knuckle design will facilitate safer traffic movements, allow for a safer parking opportunity along subject property frontage provide for more efficient street sweeping and insure appropriate storm drainage flow. Council did recently modify the street intersection criteria to allow a curve intersection rather than a knuckle for the Cabrillo project, however, the circumstances are different in that the modified streets in the Cabrillo project do not convey the level of traffic that occurs on Third and Bard Streets, which is adjacent to a school and in the middle of a larger neighborhood. The undergrounding of utility lines is the other aspect of public improvements where applicant has requested relief from standard development criteria because of the cost impact to the project. Cost information concerning this issue although requested by Staff has not been submitted for evaluation and as a result the financial impacts are not known. The Planning Commission recommended that the utilities be placed underground, concerned that allowing them to remain overhead could set a precedent that was not desirable. Additionally, the Commission felt that undergrounding, combined with new construction on this site could encourage efforts for revitalization for the entire neighborhood which has recently been reviewed by Council because of concern over private property maintenance and overcrowded households. Currently there are two wood poles on Millard Street with streetlights, which are energized with overhead electric wires connecting each of these poles to another pole in the area. No other overhead wires provide electric, telephone or cable service to the subject property on the Millard frontage. It is likely that additional poles would be required to provide service to the proposed dwellings, six (6) of, which will have frontage on Millard Street, where there are no existing utility lines. It is not known at this time whether additional poles and overhead lines would be placed on Millard Street to serve the six (6) units with frontage on Millard or if new poles would be placed on the rear property lines separating the Millard Street lots from the Bard Street lots. Either of the above alternatives to provide utilities will result in additional poles and overhead wires. The existing poles and street lights that are GOJOGJ S: \Community Development \ Everyone\ WLoftus \CC- 991006AsadurianRev 12.doc Honorable City Council September 29, 1999 Page 6 located along the street frontage of the subject property should be replaced with a marbelite pole and underground wiring, which is the City standard, whether or not other existing utilities are undergrounded. The applicant indicated at the Planning Commission that they would be happy to participate in an undergrounding district, however, the Planning Commission rejected this suggestion favoring undergrounding. Staff continues to recommend that all utilities be placed underground consistent with the standard conditions for land divisions and development. In the event that the City Council concludes to allow the existing overhead utilities to remain, utility services to the proposed dwellings should be accomplished without the placement of additional poles. DEVELOPMENT FEES At the Planning Commission hearing, the applicant suggested that because this project will provide housing more affordable than many projects in the community that the developer fees should not be required. The Planning Commission concluded that a discussion on fees should be deferred to City Council and took no position concerning this question. Applicant had indicated a desire to be relieved from paying all development fees, which includes the following fees which appear as conditions on this Residential Planned Development and Tentative Map: 1. In -lieu Park Fee - based on value of land. 2. Citywide Traffic Mitigation Fee - projects have all been charged this fee 3including Pacific Communities and Cabrillo, both in the Redevelopment Project Area.) 3. Los Angeles Area of Contribution Fee - determined by amount of traffic generated. 4. Traffic Systems Management Fund - du. air quality fee (TSM)$1,000 / (Recent projects have been charged TSM fees. The proposal to pay $1,000 /du was recently established for the Peach Hill, LLC 10 lot subdivision.) OCOOGG S: \Community Development \ Everyone \WLoftus \CC- 991006AsadurianRev 2:doc Honorable City Council September 29, 1999 Page 7 PROJECT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS As previously noted, the applicant has agreed to add some architectural detail, although one wall on two story units could be improved beyond applicant's current commitment. Applicant will install tile roofs on each unit replacing the composition material originally proposed. Additionally, the applicant has agreed to install front yard landscaping and wood fences at each property line. The attached resolution, which reflects the recommendation of the Planning Commission, calls for masonry .walls on property lines in contrast to applicant's proposal for wood fences because of their durability and lasting appearance. It should be noted that masonry property line walls were required for' the Cabrillo project at Gisler Field, and for Pacific Communities both of which are in the Redevelopment project area. The applicant has indicated disagreement with this condition. Staff would recommend slump block masonry walls because of their uniform appearance, durability and minimal maintenance. GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY The General Plan designation is Medium Density, which allows a maximum of four units per acre. The gross acreage of the parcel is approximately 1.2 acres allowing eight (8) units which is consistent with the density currently allowed by the Land Use Element of the General Plan. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION Pursuant to California State law, an evaluation has been conducted to determine if the project will have a significant effect on the environment, and based upon an Initial Study and analysis on available information, it was found that there is substantial evidence that the proposed project will not have a significant effect on the environment, therefore a Negative Declaration is intended to be adopted in compliance with the State of California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines.

ORDINANCES AND POLICIES The City's Subdivision Ordinance requires the filing and approval of a Tentative Tract map to subdivide land into more than four (4) lots. Section 17.20.050 of the City's Zoning Ordinance requires a Planned Development Permit when creating five or more separate residential lots in the R -1 Zone. Although this section requires the approval of an Planned Development Permit, the underlining R -1 zoning designation remains (setbacks are measured at the R -1 standards) but additional development criteria including architectural standards may be applied. Section 17.24 of the Zoning Ordinance regulates setbacks, height and other development standards. Section 17.32 of the Zoning Ordinance establishes standards for parking and Section 17.36 specifies the RPD permit standards. The parking requirements of the Zoning Ordinance requires a total of sixteen (16) parking spaces (two covered spaces per unit) for this project.

Residential Planned Development 99 -1; is a request for approval to construct eight single family detached homes, four single story homes of 1,636 sq.ft. each and four two story homes of 1,889 sq.ft. each. Each of the residences will offer three bedrooms and a two car garage. The two story units will have 2.5 baths, and the single story units will have two baths. Each unit will have optional fireplaces. All of the homes will be built simultaneously. Planning Commission Staff Report July 12, 1999 Applicant: Manny Asadurian Jr. Page No. 3 Tentative Tract Map No. 5181; for a subdivision of approximately 1.2 acres into eight residential lots with lot sizes ranging from 6,038 to 7,500 sq.ft. with the average lot size being approximately 6,665 square feet. By way of comparison, a typical lot size of surrounding homes is 7,500 sq.ft. for the homes west of Bard Street and 6,050 sq.ft. east of Millard Street. DISCUSSION: Zoning Requirements: The current zoning district (R -1) requires a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet, which will result in eight parcels (6.66 units per acre maximum) based on the net lot area of the parcel and would be consistent with the zoning designation of the surrounding area. Each lot in this tract meets the minimum lot size, with sizes ranging from 6,038 to 7,500 square feet in size. Site Description: The nearly level parcel of land is located between Bard and Millard Streets. The site is currently developed with one 2,154 sq.ft. single family dwelling and a metal storage shed. The site is situated within an area of other single family residential homes and abuts the east side of Flory School. A soils analysis was prepared on January 8, 1999 by SubSurface Designs Inc. The soils consist of alluvium containing silty sand to a depth of 35'. The water table varies from 35 to 39 feet. Site drainage is currently by sheetflow runoff to Bard and Millard Streets. Parking: Pursuant to Section 17.32 of the City's Municipal Code (Parking, Access and Landscape Requirements), single family dwellings require a two car garage, which is proposed for each of the eight (8) residences for a total of of sixteen (16) spaces. The face of the garage door is at least 20 feet behind the property line for all proposed dwellings, which allows for visitor parking in front of the garages. Proposed Landscaping: Section 17.36.030 of the Municipal Code does not specify a requirement for a minimum landscaped setback. No conceptual 03071 Planning Commission Staff Report July 12, 1999 Applicant: Manny Asadurian Jr. Page No. 4 landscape plan was submitted. Applicant proposes that each individual homeowner provide their own landscaping. However, with only the recent exception of the Residential Planned Development projects approved for the Carlsberg Specific Plan, the City has consistently required the developer to landscape the front yard areas of single family dwellings. The Peach Hill project (RPD No. 99 -3) approved by the City Council on June 16, 1999, was required to provide front yard landscaping following a request to waive that requirement. Staff is recommending that front yard landscaping be required as a condition of this Residential Planned Development and has included a condition in the attached Planning Commission Resolution to require the installation of landscaping in front yards prior to occupancy of the units. Presently, landscaping on site consists of grasses and 13 trees which are proposed to be removed to facilitate construction of the project. Because existing trees are proposed to be removed, a tree report will be required and additional landscaping equal in value to that removed will be required. A condition requiring a tree report and additional landscaping has been included in the Planning Commission Resolution attached. Fences and Walls: Note No. 9 of sheet A -1 of Exhibit 3 indicates that fences and walls are not proposed by the applicant, and therefore are the responsibility of the homebuyer. Inasmuch as the City requires all projects to provide property line walls and /or fences, approval of this project without walls could result in their not being completed after occupancy, with a consequent lack privacy in rear yard areas. A condition has been included in the attached Planning Commission Resolution to require the installation of property line (separates adjoining lots) and perimeter walls prior to occupancy. Building Height: The criteria contained within the development standards in Section 17.24.020.A limits the height of single family residential structures to no more than 25 feet, unless each side yard is fifteen (15) feet or greater, in which case the height limit may be as much as thirty -five (35) feet. The proposed two story dwellings will have a maximum height of 2518" which -is not consistent with the Ordinance limitation. Should the project be approved, staff suggests adoption of a condition limiting the maximum height based upon the proposed architecture and floor plans to 25' and this has been included as a condition in the attached Planning Commission Resolution. 000 Planning Commission Staff Report July 12, 1999 Applicant: Manny Asadurian Jr. Page No. 5 Setbacks: The required minimum setbacks as specified in Section 17.24.020A of the Zoning Ordinance for one and two story single family residential structures in the Single Family Residential Zone and the projects compliance with these standards is contained in the chart below: Zoning Ordinance (R -1 Zone) Front: 20 feet Side yard: 5 feet Two story with Windows (side): 10 feet Rear: 15 feet Project Proposal 20 feet minimum 27 feet maximum 5 feet minimum 40 feet maximum 21 feet minimum 29 feet maximum (The second floor 5' contain any windows) 15 feet minimum 53 feet maximum setbacks do not The above standards are required unless otherwise modified by the City Council. All required setback requirements have been met. Architectural Style: The elevations contain several architectural features which when blended together provide a design which is appropriate for the project site. The architectural theme depicts several features found in Cottage and American Country architectural styles, including the use of window shutters, colonnaded porches, attic vents and decorative window trim and horizontal siding. Each unit is proposed to have identical white stucco and 'copper canyon' composite shingles and one of three trim combinations: gray siding /off white trim and dark green shutters, beige siding /off white trim and dark brown shutters or the third combination of off white siding /light gray trim and light brown shutters. A color and materials board will be provided at the Planning Commission hearing for the four plans. O00073 Planning Commission Staff Report July 12, 1999 Applicant: Manny Asadurian Jr. Page No. 6 Although these features represent a more contemporary design and coloration than many of the surrounding homes, staff has conditioned the project to require additional architectural enhancements including concrete tile roofs, multi pane windows on the front elevation and window surrounds on all windows. Also, the color of the stucco and roof tiles should be varied. This project is within the Redevelopment Project Area but is not within the Downtown Specific Plan area, therefore, the architectural criteria of the Downtown Specific Plan does not apply. The construction of two story dwellings in this area of the City will introduce dwellings which are different from existing structures, since with one exception, all of the homes in the area bordered by Los Angeles Avenue, Moorpark Road and Spring Road are single story in design. The exception is the house at the northeast corner of Moorpark Avenue and Third Street which is two stories in design. The homes east of Millard street are older tract style homes with minimal architectural decoration and the homes west of Bard Street have no consistent architectural style. Site Improvements /Public Improvements: The City Engineer has conditioned the project to provide for all necessary on -site and off -site storm drain facilities required by the City to accommodate site drainage. The developer also has been conditioned to improve the knuckle where Bard Street meets Third Street as required by Ventura County Plate No. C -4, depicted in Exhibit 8. This improvement could result in the reconfiguration of the lots to match the street improvements. In addition, the plans will provide for removal and replacement of all damaged sections of curb and gutter. Affordable Housing: Section 33413(b)(2)(A)(i) of the State Redevelopment Code requires residential projects in a Redevelopment Area to dedicate no less than 150 of the total number of units for affordable housing for persons of Low or Moderate income. Based upon these provisions of State Law, at least one of the eight units is required to be allocated for affordable housing. A condition of approval has been recommended in the attached Planning Commission Resolution that one dwelling be allocated as a affordable unit available to a family in the Low income category (800 of Ventura County Median Income, which currently is $ 47,800 for a family of four) for a period of at least thirty (30) years. oC OO74 Planning Commission Staff Report July 12, 1999 Applicant: Manny Asadurian Jr. Page No. 7 Air Quality: The Air Pollution Control District has determined that the proposed eight (8) lot residential development will generate less than five pounds per day of particulates, which has no regional or local air quality impacts, however, a condition has been included to pay a TSM Fee of $1,000.00 per dwelling unit since all development adds pollution on a cumulative basis. A condition has been proposed for the project to prohibit any grading when the wind speed exceeds 15 miles per hour. OTHER AGENCY REVIEW: All conditions of Approval from Agencies and Departments that have reviewed the Tentative Tract Map and Residential Planned Development Permit have been incorporated into the Conditions of Approval for Tentative Tract Map No. 5181 and Residential Planned Development No. 99 -1. GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY: The General Plan designation is Medium Density, which allows a maximum of four units per acre. The gross acreage of the parcel is approximately 1.2 acres allowing eight (8) units which is consistent with the density currently allowed by the Land Use Element of the General Plan. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: Pursuant to California State law, an evaluation has been conducted to determine if the project will have a significant effect on the environment, and based upon an Initial Study and analysis of available information, it was found that there is substantial evidence that the proposed project will not have a significant effect on the environment, therefore a Negative Declaration is intended to be adopted in compliance with the State of California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines.

Many of the questions raised were clarified for staff, while some of the representative's statements indicated disagreement with suggested conditions.

Elimination of the knuckle at the intersection of Bard Street and Third Street. 2. Modification of the undergrounding requirement to allow the property owner to contribute to the formation of an Underground Assessment District in the future. Concerning recommended conditions relating to site development and standards for dwelling construction, the applicant proposes the following: 1. Front yards will be landscaped 2. Wooden fences will be constructed in areas mutually agreeable to staff and the applicant (recommended condition required slump block masonry walls on property lines). 3. Concrete roofing will be installed. 4. The architecture will remain the same, however proposed that the City Council modify the size units and setbacks to provide for a change in size should the applicant develop a more 5 6. 7. efficient floor plan.

Additionally, the applicant proposes that any conditions regarding fees and affordable housing requirements be deferred to the City Council for discussion. However, the applicant has requested that the Commission recommend that fees be equitably reduced in the spirit of promoting affordable housing. As noted in the "Background" section of this report no new information has been presented to support any of the requested modifications to the standard conditions related to public improvements and infrastructure required for this type of 000133 PLANNING COMMISSION RPD 99 -1 & TT -5181 AUGUST 5, 1999 Page 3 development. No information concerning the cost of constructing the knuckle or undergrounding utilities has been provided (see Attachments C & D), therefore staff has no basis on which to evaluate the alternative and continues to recommend: 1. Construction of the knuckle at the intersection of Bard Street and Third Street. 2. Undergrounding of all utilities. The Planning Commission may desire to offer a recommendation to the City Council on this issue although without some information to support a conclusion, a recommendation may be difficult. The applicant's response to development standards and conditions for building construction are mostly responsive to concerns expressed by the Planning Commission conditions recommended for approval as they relate to: 1. Building height 2. Window surrounds 3. Concrete tile roofs 4. Front yard landscaping 5. Color selections Staff would continue however, to recommend that the property line wall be decorative masonry, not wood, Decorative masonry has consistently been a condition and was recently required for Pacific Communities and Cabrillo Economic Development, both of which had significant affordable housing components. Additionally, the Commission may desire to address the architectural component as at least one Commissioner offered the comment that two story buildings at this location seemed out of character for the area which has nearly 100% single story structures. The Planning Commission should offer a recommendation to the City Council on the fences and architecture. Relative to the issue of fees and affordable housing, as stated at the Planning Commission hearing of July 12, 1999, the issues relate to City Ordinances and Policy and may only be addriessed by the City Council. A recommendation from the Planning Commission concerning these issues may be offered, however, it is not suggested since information has not been provided to the 0001 PLANNING COMMISSION RPD 99 -1 & TT -5181 AUGUST 5, 1999 Page Commission concerning the specific benefits to the communir- %7 by recommending to City Counci_ acceptance of the applicant`s alternative.

Attached is a copy of that study with the City Traffic Engineer's comments. Although it is our recommendation to install the knuckle per standard, the City Traffic Engineer does state that the developers proposed layout works geometrically, with additional striping and parking restrictions. This would be similar to Cabrillo Economic Development's project. It should also be noted that the exhibit in the developer's study is inaccurate with respect to the radii of both the future inside curb and future inside right of way needs for a standard knuckle. The radius of the curb would need to be 35 feet rather than the shown 45 feet and the radius of the right of way would be 25 feet rather than the shown 35 feet. This would slightly reduce the amount of right of way needs. In addition, our office has not yet received a report from the applicant regarding estimated utility relocation or knuckle construction costs, as requested by the Commission. cc: chron 88.330 000139 HAASE & ASSOCIATES April 24. 1999 \ 1r. Craig Malin .-assistant Planner City of Moorpark 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, CA 93021 Re: Residential Planned Development Permit No. 93 -1 Tentative Tract No. 5181 884 Bard Street, Moorpark, California Dear Mr. Malin; Your letter dated March 11, 1999, requires the installation of a Ventura County Standard knuckle at the intersection of Bard Street and 3rd Street as part of the above referenced development (your Item 3 - r under Site Plan and the City Engineer's Item 18). Compliance with this requirement is not feasible for this Affordable Housing project. This project boarders only a portion of the proposed knuckle and additional right -of -way would be required from the other neighboring properties. The property on the critical inside curve of the knuckle is a single family residence that would be significantly damaged to give up the necessary land to construct a knuckle at this location. Additional right -of -way would have to be acquired from the Flory Elementary School with the prospect of serious delay. Only the City has the power of condemnation to acquire the needed right -of -way and the cost of such an acquisition would be beyond the financial capability of this project. We submit that the existing "L" shaped intersection is adequate. That it will currently allow the passage of two large bus type vehicles designated SU Design Vehicle by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). This is a 40 foot vehicle that would be similar to or larger than City buses, fire trucks and trash trucks, the largest vehicles most likely to use these residential streets. (In most instances, semi trucks and trailers have better turning geometry than the SU Design Vehicle.) The only difference between the existing condition and a standard knuckle is the ability to park vehicles on the outside curve of the knuckle. We do not see this aspect of a knuckle as an advantage with an elementary school and crosswalk in such close proximity. We have attached a sketch of the existing intersection with the turning radius geometry of the two SU Design Vehicles traveling in opposite directions superimposed upon it. As can be seen, there is a safe margin between the vehicles. This sketch assumes curbs along the streets have been panted red for "no parking" as indicated on the sketch.

MAP TFACT Nv SISI CITY OF MOORPARK COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM To: Honorable City Council From: Wayne Loftus, Director of Community Development /42:� Date: October 6, 1999 (CC meeting of 10/06/99) Subject: Alternatives to Achieve the Affordable Housing Requirement Under Provisions of California Redevelopment Law as it Applies to Residential Planned Development 99 -1 and Tentative Tract 5181 (Asadurian) The above noted project which is Item 9.C. on the October 6, 1999, City Council agenda includes a condition (No. 16, Stamped Page 204 and No. 8, Stamped Page 225) requiring one three bedroom unit, minimum of 1350 square feet to be sold to a Low - Income household. The applicant requested that the Planning Commission delete this condition and it is expected that this request will also be made of the City Council on October 6, 1999. This project is within the Redevelopment Area and as such is subject to California Redevelopment Law, which includes requirements for affordable housing units (Section 33413 (b) (2) (A) (i) ] when residential development occurs. Although not required on a project - by- project basis, the requirement for 15% affordable units (Very Low and Low Income) must be achieved under Redevelopment Law; there is no alternative to compliance.., with the overall requirement. The proposed project must provide one affordable unit for a family of four for the life of the Redevelopment Area (32 years) , which concludes in year 2032. Currently the qualifying income for a family of four based upon the Ventura County, Median Income of $65,300 is $47,800. Therefore, any housing unit provided to satisfy the project condition of one unit for a Low Income family would have to be available to a family of four earning $47,800. There are a number of alternatives available to achieve the required Affordable Housing unit including: 99'OWAnaftk hw f gn*-WZft -toss -44.06 FU ATTACHMENT it F it 00014G Honorable City Council October 6, 1999 Page 2 1. The developer may designate one of the eight units within the proposed Residential Planned Development /Tentative Tract Map as a Low Income unit with appropriate deed restriction to the year 2032. The unit should be a minimum of 1350 square feet in size with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and be consistent with all other criteria that may be developed through the Affordable Housing Implementation and Resale Restriction Plan. 2. In -lieu of constructing the Low Income affordable housing unit required, the developer shall pay a fee of fifty -one thousand dollars ($51,000) for the one unit, to the City (In -lieu Fee) which shall be used by the City for the purpose of providing housing affordable to Low Income households. A pro -rata portion of the In -Lieu Fee in the amount of six thousand three hundred seventy -five dollars (6,375.00) shall be paid prior to issuance of the Building Permit for each dwelling unit in the development project. (This is based on eight dwelling units.) Commencing October 1, 2001, and annually hereafter, the In -Lieu Fee shall be adjusted by any increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) until all In -Lieu Fees have been paid. The CPI increase shall be determined by the information provided by the U.S. Department* of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, for all urban consumers within preceding twelve month period covering June to June. In the event there is a decrease in the CPI for any annual indexing, the In -lieu Fee shall remain at it's current amount until such time as the next subsequent indexing which results in an increase. 3. The developer could pursue an agreement with another developer to provide the required Low - Income unit in an alternative project within the Redevelopment Area. Details as to the term of the commitment (to year 2032), the size of the unit (would remain the same) and agreement details would be the developers responsibility to bring to the City, in an Affordable Housing Implementation and Resale Restriction Plan. Based upon the current average rent for apartment units in Moorpark, the monthly write -down is estimated at $150.00 per month for a total of $57,600 for the 32 year life of the commitment. A deed restriction would be required. &1Canrr WV*=WtWayne Lo tM MIW&Af(adaW It- -MWMWW ,ckx 0001A- ' Honorable City Council October 6, 1999 Page 3 4. The developer could write -down the purchase price (2"d Trust Deed) of an existing off site unit and deed restrict the unit to the year 2032 to achieve the one Low - Income unit required. All of the terms and conditions relating to size of the unit, its physical condition and suitability etc., would be part of the Affordable Housing Implementation and Resale Restriction Plan. Based upon current housing prices for a suitable housing unit to be made available to a Low - Income family, it is estimated that the write- down would be approximately $50,000. To insure that all commitments are satisfied during the 32 -year term of this deed restricted unit an appropriate administrative fee of approximately $8,000 ($1,000 /du) would also be required for a total of approximately $58,000. CONCLUSION The above list of alternatives is not intended to be exhaustive, but does offer a variety of solutions; other alternatives may exist. An affordable unit may be provided outside of the Redevelopment Area, however, if that is viewed as an acceptable solution the ratio required under Redevelopment Law is two units to one as compared to the ratio of one unit for one unit when provided within the Redevelopment' Area. It should also be noted that there are other expenses that would be incurred with any of the above alternatives such as document preparation, recordation etc., which would be the responsibility of the developer.

Following discussion on several aspects of this proposal and consideration of the applicant's request for relief from various development standards and development fees, the Council asked for additional information to facilitate their decision. The applicant subsequently requested a thirty -day continuance to November 3, 1999, to respond to Council's request. The applicant, however, at this time (see attached letter dated October 25, 1999) has requested an additional thirty day continuance to December 1, 1999, to collect information in support of the proposed modifications to the project conditions. In addition to granting the initial thirty -day continuance the City Council also established an Ad Hoc Committee (Councilmembers Harper and Rodgers) to review all aspects of this proposal and conditions as determined by the Committee. The applicant has not provided any information for Committee consideration at this time'.

NOV 0 3 1999 City of Moorpark Community Development Your letter dated March 11, 1999, requires the installation of a Ventura County Standard knuckle at the intersection of Bard Street and 3rd Street as part of the above referenced development (your Item 3 - r under Site Plan and the City Engineer's Item 18). Compliance with this requirement is not feasible for this Affordable Housing project. This project boarders only a portion of the proposed knuckle and additional right- of-way would be required from the other neighboring properties. The property on the critical inside curve of the knuckle is a single famil residence that would be significantly damaged to give up the necessary land to construct a knuckle at this Iocation. Additional right -of -way would have to be acquired from the Flory Elementary School with the prospect of serious delay. Only the City has the power of condemnation to acquire the needed right -of- -way and the cost of such an acquisition would be beyond the financial capability of this project. We submit that the existing "L" shaped intersection is adequate. That it will currently allow the passage of two large bus type vehicles designated SU Design Vehicle by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASH'TO). This is a 40 foot vehicle that would be similar to or larger than City buses fire trucks and trash trucks, the largest vehicles most likely to use these residential streets. (In most instances semi trucks and trailers have better turning geometry than the SU Design Vehicle.) The only difference between the eking condition and a standard knuckle is the ability.to park vehicles on the outside curve of the knuckle. We do not see this aspect of a knuckle as an advantage with an elementary school and crosswalk in such close proximity. We have attached a sketch of the existing Vehicletraveling m xisting intersection with the turning radius geometry of the two SU Design ' opposite directions superimposed upon it As can be seen, there is a safe margin between the vehicles. This sketch assumes curbs along the streets have been painted red for "no parking" as indicated on the sketch. The yellow "loading only". curb adjacent to the school should remain since its use is transient• 2555 Grand e , FIIImore, CA 93015 0001.5 - t•, (805) 524 -9005 RPD 93 -1 TIN 5181 Page 2 The current street is without centerline stripes and we believe that it should remain so. No margin of safety is gained by such striping and knuckles in residential areas are not commonly striped. We thank you for your consideration of the above and request the City delete its knuckle requirement due to the hardship it imposes on this project and its neighbors. Sincerely, Haase & Associates Lawrence A. Welton, P.E. cc: Matt Gaspar, P.E. - City of Moorpark Joe Ahearn attachments: Sketch CS -1 Turning template - AASHTO SU Design Vehicle 0001sei MEMORANDUM - —° To: Wayne Loftus, Director of Community Development From: Dirk Lovett, Assistant City Engineer Date: November 10, 1999 RECEIVED Subject: Tentative Tract 5181 - Asadurian NOV 10 199 C1tyolMoorpark conumnity Development Per our discussion, I have observed complications at the Bard /Third Street intersection when large vehicles, such as school buses and trucks, execute the turn. With the existing geometrics of the intersection, buses and trucks tend to wander across the center of the street making it uncomfortable and difficult for opposing traffic to enter the intersection at the same time. Although the developer has illustrated that the existing intersection will work, with additional striping and parking restrictions, it is our office's opinion that the intersection would be better served if the City standard knuckle is installed. The standard knuckle allows more flexibility for driver error and comfort, especially important at this intersection for vehicular, bicycle, and bus traffic due its proximity to Flory School. cc: chron 88.330 000159 J•1 YIY S19i 11N 911Y i�191Y Ni �� .u.rrwauuwraar■ i ��gtK pia .L da%'� 1}I 141 �p � l e Y fe ^.no t o= � Y �n���� jk 3 wef.f!pJ a ■� od�3 �j�t }�}� :: _,,, : .66.i•• {�fi���i7 YY ; jj p��� `6j7Y o -.n.. i ^z C y Z SAC ! f`i i. 3d 5S 3 Eq l ; .44P4�,: n FI <� _ S6 R�EE ►i (r < Y �6 i 7 �Y Ci i L l Y l a ! § pkJ 6n���wbz ^ e Y���L �Y �8i-t�b ZHU <w < S� nw.n.ros t ��� u �itt� <� - n....�.•�= nn..e_e.�_n w.n nn nn^ iaa13S Puo7n 00 b O Z Y c 4 u N u a 0 O 'any LvSnS . l:J VAV 4Q.IfS . r7aai7S D�141 ©e ATTACHMENT it _ if Q a s v G r O b Z !r FF� o I L- � � 3aa�7S P-041 ' � c RECEIVED SEP 2 7 1999 City of Moorpark Community Devetopmern 0001: o d a� P.d : PIGi ' fJ.: S /f•1 / � I1 ' I s LL =-� . *raw. 1 - - *d North CONCEPTUAL GRADING AND DRAINAGE PLAIT TENTATIVE MAP TRACT NO. 5181 PREPARED FOR: MANUEL ASAOURIAN JR. 975 NEW L.A.

I would suggest at the very lease additional signage to alert drivers to the narrow turn and a solid yellow line in the midline of the street beginning at the crosswalk on the west, preceding east and turning to the north for some short distance. 2) Construction Traffic: The school bus pickup and drop -off serving Flory School, the Pre - School, and the departure point of students to other sites within the District is located on the south side of Third Street that borders the north side of the Flory School campus. This location is used throughout the school day for several transportation schedules, which include departure and drop -off. Current statute enacted to ensure the safety of students empowers the District to identify bus stop locations which prohibit the passing of a school bus with blinking red lights, which is loading or unloading students. The blinking red lights cause traffic to stop in either direction. The District has determined that this Third Street stop is one which should require blinking red lights for additional student safety. Additional traffic caused by construction will only increase the vehicular congestion and will probably cause traffic to back towards Moorpark. Avenue. Construction traffic related to this proposed project must be diverted from this area due to the safety of the students and to prevent further congestion. 3) Construction Dust, Noise, and Toxic Substances: Due to the immediate adjacency of the proposed construction site to the Early Childhood Center, Pre - School programs, the children's Wellness Clinic, and Flory School it is essential to the health of children and the support of the appropriate educational environment that dust, noise, and toxic substances be controlled. Thank you for your consideration in contacting the District with regards as to the impacts this proposed construction project may have on the students, employees, and residents within the District. Please call me at the above number if you have any questions or require further information.

(Sources: 3,5,12) ❑ ❑ ❑ X Response: Section 17.20.050 allows five or more single family homes in R -1 zones with approval of an Residential Planned Development Permit. The General Plan Land Use Map depicts the site as M (Medium) which is consistent with the zoning designation. All surrounding existing land uses have been .built in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance, Moorpark Municipal Code and General Plan Instdy5.rpt 7 000117'f' 1 Issues (and Supporting Potentially Potentially Less Than Information Sources): Significant Significant Significant Impact Unless Impact 7Impact Mitigation Incorporated requirements and do not contain any features or code violations which would be compromised if this project were to be approved. This project will not introduce a compatibility issue based upon current or proposed projects on the basis of the existing land use designation and zoning and is consistent with the adjacent uses and represents an upgraded level of design in comparison to the surrounding homes. 4. Affect agricultural resources or operations (e.g., impacts to soils or farmlands), convert agricultural land to nonagricultural use, and /or result in an inadequate buffer between incompatible land uses? (Sources: 3,5,12) ❑ ❑ ❑ X Response: The project site is not used for the growing of any agricultural crop and is not considered farmland of prime or statewide importance. The area has not been farmed in the recent past. 5. Disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an established community (including a low- income or minority community)? (Sources: 3,5,12) ❑ ❑ ❑ X Response: The site is located in a residential zone and does not require approval of a Zone Change or General Plan Amendment. Construction of the project will have no impact on the physical arrangement of the residential development on the north, east and south side of the project or require the construction of new streets. This project will provide additional housing in the City. Response: The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Designation of the property.

Unique geologic or physical features? (Sources: 3,12,13) X X ❑ x Response: Approval of this project will not result in the creation of any geologic hazards. Review of the submitted materials and various documents reveals that no geologic features will be altered. The geotechnical engineering report prepared for the project indicates that the site from a geotechnical standpoint is suitable for the proposed single family homes. Response: Implementation of the project will require excavation and recompaction, contour grading, installation of utilities, and connection of drainage collection facilities to the flood control channel. The grading program will not result in changes to surface topography. During a brief period of time during construction, erosion and the displacement of sediment may occur; appropriate measures will be required to insure that discharge of soil into the adjacent properties is avoided. There is a low potential for liquifaction, and moderate potential for expansive soils. Amplification of seismic waves are likely in the event of an earthquake. Should the project be approved, standard conditions of approval will be adopted to insure the integrity of the homes and safety of the residents. IV. WATER. Would the proposal result in: 18.
